Can't relate to shows about a cool guy with a sense of justice who rights various wrongs. Our media should feature true heroes, titans of industry. Flabby middle aged guys who do fraud and post hateful memes online

Lady Justice milliseconds before the outside bark.
A brown and black striped greyhound lays on a couch. Her eyes are fixed on something to the right. Clearly she has something to say.

My director is having a loud phone argument with her daddy back home over who was married to whom 20 years ago and when their spouse died and this is why I'm glad to be in rural academia.

tired of the "#1 dad" nonsense. if you're a dad, stop treating it like a joke and post your actual national dad ranking. i'm # 492,018, which is actually really high up there, but more importantly it lets me enter ranked dad lobbies where i can get matched up for fistfights with dads of my caliber

You gently run your hand through the rack. You can feel it—pure cotton, rich wool, Irish linen. The plump buttonholes are handsewn; the buttons attached with a firm shank. You flip the price tag over. It's affordable You buy the jacket and go home, which is only 15 mins away. Your apt is $600/month

The students are SO BACK. Two freshmen nervously opened the door to my office suite. I asked them what they needed, of course. "We need books. Where are they?" All around us, friend. This is a library. But some students have never visited one! I don't mind, I love explaining what libraries do.

I said to one of my nursing faculty that my retirement plan was to work in the library until they found me dead in the stacks. She looked at me and with deep sincerity mused, "I truly cannot imagine a better place to die than school".

My interpersonal drama-loving husband and I's relationship is so disgustingly healthy that we invent beef between our D&D characters. He plays a lovable kenku street rat who taught himself engineering. I play a cunty winter eladrin trying to make tenure at a magic R1.
